Well, since you are obviously too busy to read the above posts, I’ll sum up: after your splendid rejoinder, I (naturally) assumed you were taking up a career in professional writing, and asked if you had joined the staff of _Time_ or _Newsweek_ or, possibly, _GQ_; Elendil’s Heir then remarked that your sagacious commentary was enough to propel him into the electoral race for governor in Ohio, despite the fact that the election is next Tuesday, and asked for advice in how to proceed; buddha\_david insisted that the most direct and visible approach would be the only possibly effective route, and that he should bomb, poison and otherwise assassinate all other candidates, and anyone who would be in a position to cavil or quibble about any slight irregularity in the proceedings; whereas CheshireKat pointed out that it is Halloween, and you might remember to kiss a few babies at the same time; I think that’s all — did I leave anything out? ---
